NAKORN SAWAN
The provincial capital is 240 kilometers north of Bangkok and marks
the spot where four rivers, the Ping, Wang, Yom and Nan unite to
form the Chao Phraya River that flows southwards and dissects
Bangkok before flowing into the Gulf of Thailand. The provincial
capital's Bung Boraphet Lake is the largest aquaculture source of
freshwater fish in Thailand. The lake area encompasses a museum and
aquarium and a waterfowl park. Nakhon Sawan celebrates Chinese New
Year with special elan, featuring Dragon and Lion Dance processions
and musical parades, usually either during late January or early
February.
